Keep the Faith

Product Notes

About basshits James 'Gip' Gibson grew up in Motown (Detroit) and learned to play the bass at age 8. He graduated with a B.S. in Chemistry from Elizabeth City State University, but kept his chops up by getting jazz gigs wherever he could. Gip is married with 3 kids and now resides in Chesapeake VA. After having played bass for his church (Grove Baptist Church in Portsmouth, VA.) for several years, Gip's writing style evolved into a mixture of gospel and jazz. His album 'Keep the Faith' features the soulful sax playing of Michael Pettiford and a vocal treat from sister in-law Stacy Gibson.
